> They wrote mega defensive and very boring code
How I love boring code, and I am getting more defensive. Good-sleep-oriented-programming.
For much of my career I took technical debt on myself because I felt uncomfortable giving generous time estimations with ample buffers. I am ashamed. But now I learn to push the breaks, ask for help and escalate unexpected problems as early as possible in the project. I don't need the trendiest tech on my resume as long as the team is happy and sleep well.
